Column describes holiday on Ripley farm,.
•from page 6
sprouts of anticipation early this spring.
- The Ontario department of tourism sup-
plied the hot bed of fertility, along with a
list of farms 'accepting guests. The •idea
grew, and its conception attained full
fledged/ pregnancy when we started our
enquiries to various farms.
It became increasingly apparent that the
difficulty would be in selecting one, out of
0 many who responded to our enquiries.
They all sounded so darn good. We would
love to be able to spend a week with each of
them. Maybe we will, in turn..
The reality of a farm holiday brings one's
own way of living into sharp gqntrast. the
style and the every day living is so
different. It is not a race against time, but a
race against nature, and every day is
different..

*from page 6
He released the hotel keeper and .strode
across to the table where Mackorie lay in
• complete oblivion. Lifting him like a sack of
grain, he slung, him over his shoulder and
carried him out of the hotel. He dumped
him not too gently on the back of the wagon
and made his way back to Redtrees.
"I think yon MacCrimmon is all wind
and water," Fatty Flynn told his patrons.
• "I've seen men like him before."
• "Not like MacCrimmon, ye haven't," a
voice said. "The last hotel keeper who
stood in his way, he almost beat him to
death!" •
Our hosts were Francis and Irene Boyle
of Ripley, who operate a. hog and sheep
farm and grow crops of corn, wheat, and
soy beans. Nicer, more hospitable people
would be hard to find. We were part of the
•family from the •moment we walked in..
Imagine having total strangers Walk into 1
your home, and become "family" for a
week. It requires a great deal of considera-
tion and understanding on both sides to
make it successful. They certainly did their
share; I hope we did ours.
Every evening, after a full day's work,
they went out of their way to show .us a
good time. We spent an evening in Kincar-
dine, enjoying musical groups and a sing
along. During an evening tour of the
country side, we visited points of interest
and ate ice creain at Lucknow. We attend-
ed an annual picnic at a neighbour's place.
Any occasion is an excuse for a get
together. Everyone brings what they have
and comes as they are.
I have never met so many nice people
and wish 1 could remember all their names.
Relatives of our hosts met us on a first
name basis Sand accepted us as family. We
were granted "after hours" privileges at
the Fisherman's Cove in the swimming
pool and sauna; just the four of us. We
enjoyed a visit to the museum at Goderich
with lunch at Francis' sister's place after-
wards.
1 cannot begin to remember everyone we
met, although a few individuals stand out.
Thanks to everyone who made, our stay so
enjoyable, and a special thanks to the
person who brought Tena back to the farm
after she had her hair done. These things
